2 shrimp sold to me as a ghost shrimp. What are everyones thoughts? Each picture is a different shrimp. Should I relocate if not?

 

[JuiceBox52]

Could we get clearer pics? Maybe against a dark background?

 

[jlo718]

Tried my best. Let me know if these will do. First pic is a different shrimp from the 2nd and 3rd pic

They look like ghost shrimp to me

That's good to hear they are close to 2 inches I would say with visible foreclaws

Yeah mine got that big as well. I believe they are ghosts

The American ghost shrimp. The orange on the antennae gives that away.

Good to hear. Now hopefully I don't have to worry about the smaller amanos in the tank. Thank you guys.

My ghosts ate my cherries, I would keep a close eye on them

Oh wow good to know. The amanos are well hidden so I haven't seen any interactions yet. The ghost shrimp are bigger than most of my fish and I haven't seen any aggression yet.

Hello and welcome to the forum. I also have ghost shrimp tank and the females get to be around 1 1/2-2 inches long

That is also how I tell

Thank you everyone for confirming that for me. Since they are larger ghost shrimp would they be okay with amanos?
